Hmm, like my friend Greg Cox, the description of my TOS book Devil's Bargain is based on an older outline. The colonial world is not a mining colony, but a producer of a beer famous in the local sector. The Horta are are recruited to help avoid an asteroid strike that's going to destroy the colony. Having fun writing it at the moment... Tony D.

Welcome to TrekBBS, and thanks for clarifying. That sounds pretty awesome.

BTW, if you send a private message to Rosalind, one of the mods here, you can get a custom text under your username that says "Writer."
